Designed for Safety
Yale is famous for offering safe lift trucks that are flexible and adaptable for many different tasks and applications. The ability to make and design units for better safety comes from the new technology that is available in the company's experience and the material handling business.
Yale likes to incorporate new technology that is available into their newest designs. Some of the new technologies that are on the market are first applied to forklift trucks and after that proven further through functionality and durability testing. The company conducts numerous reliability development and controlled field tests in order to make certain that their products are really safe.
Some of Yale's new designs and technology that has been integrated as standard features for their fleet so as to enhance overall safety consist of the following:
Operator Compartment Ergonomics and Controls
The ergonomics in the operator compartment as well as the controls are made with state-of-the-art technology. These designs help to guarantee that the operator avoids heavy repetitive motions as well as fatigue. These extra comforts help to increase overall efficiency.
Adjustable Operators Controls and Compartment
Having adjustable operator's compartment and controls enables the necessary controls to be able to be positioned in close proximity to a huge range of operators. This helps make the machinery user friendly, regardless of who is operating it. Before beginning their shift, the operator could make certain he or she is as comfortable as possible.
Operator Presence System
The Operator Presence System prevents the hydraulic system operation from being used if the operator is not in the right operating position. This presence system additionally disables directional travel on trucks which have IC engines.
Swing-Out LPG Tank Bracket
The liquid propane gas tank has a drop down design which brings it out from the vehicle's center to the natural handling position of the operator which makes it far easier to change.
